first off, my sub is a elemental designs 9kv.2(8"sub). nearly identical to the e3.8 which replaced it. specs can be found on their website.
the pink line is the plot line for how my sub is setup now. its in a sealed box, aproximately .42 cubic feet.
the green line is the plot line, if i were to switch it up and go ported. elemental designs suggests a box of .7 cubic feet tuned to 35hz.
this is just to give you an idea of how much of a difference it would make. at 40hz, theres almost a 6db gain. in theory, a 3db would be like doubling your amps power.
the red line at 100hz represents where id cross it over at. the red line at 30hz is where id set the subsonic filter at. so you can see a nice gain in output from 30hz all the way to 60hz.
